Photon-efficient quantum repeater chains via hyperentanglement-assisted purification
Vinay Kumar, Krishan Joshi, Claudio Cicconetti
Linear quantum repeater chains based on Werner-state purification (the BBPSSW protocol) and entanglement swapping (the BDCZ scheme) are fundamental to entanglement distribution in…
Making Quantum Networks Work: Routing, Calibration, and Programmable Quantum Repeaters
Vinay Kumar
The quantum internet enables distribution of quantum states across distant nodes, supporting secure communication, distributed computing, and quantum sensing. Unlike classical netw…
Optimal Calibration of Quantum Network Links
Vinay Kumar, Claudio Cicconetti, Marco Conti +1
The reliable distribution of entanglement is essential for the effective operation of quantum networks. Due to fundamental differences between quantum and classical communication s…
Instruction-Set Architecture for Programmable NV-Center Quantum Repeater Nodes
Vinay Kumar, Claudio Cicconetti, Riccardo Bassoli +2
Programmability is increasingly central in emerging quantum network software stacks, yet the node-internal controller-to-hardware interface for quantum repeater devices remains und…
